Buffy the Vampire Slayer is a 1992 American comedy vampire film directed by Fran Rubel Kuzui and written by Joss Whedon. It stars Kristy Swanson as the eponymous Buffy Summers, a Valley Girl cheerleader who learns it is her fate to hunt vampires.[2] Donald Sutherland, Paul Reubens, Rutger Hauer, and Luke Perry appear in supporting roles.
The film received mixed reviews from critics and grossed $16.6 million on a $7 million budget.[3][4][5] It also took a different direction from what Whedon intended, leading him to create a television series of the same name to critical acclaim.
